Tag: OSHA air gun

The other day I received a call from the Corporate Director of a manufacturing company with multiple locations across the country. He had grown frustrated with the service and quality he was receiving from his current Air Gun & Nozzle supplier. He explained that he was unable to buy the individual components to make repairs to the air guns and described the overall quality as “disposable”.

I asked him for model air gun he had been purchasing so that I could make an accurate comparison and recommendation for the equivalent or better EXAIR offering. As I researched this competitive air gun I was surprised to find out that the specifications were vague at best. What I mean by that is EXAIR clearly publishes air consumption @ 80 PSI, force which is specified @ 12″ from the nozzle and the sound level in dBA @ 3′ from the nozzle.

The customer reported an average noise reduction of over 15 dBA which looks considerable, however it is a greater gain than the number would indicate. An increase of 10 dB is required before sound is perceived to be twice as loud, therefore EXAIR lowered the perceived sound by over 150%!

When you are looking for OSHA safe, quiet and efficient point of use compressed air products give us a call. Experience the EXAIR difference first hand and receive the great customer service, products and attention you deserve! We would enjoy hearing from you.
